Yes, but what about for other packages? Mantis is not effective for them, because it does not target bugs at individual packages. It has some notion of "projects", which might be usable, but not until something is done to make the list have an option for every package.
The simplest thing that could possibly work is to have an email address with every package. People can send bug reports to the email address; individual package maintainers can choose how to deal with them: the email address can point to Mantis, a Request Tracker installation, a Source Forge account, or a homebrew Squeak app.
I hardly think we want to build another SourceForge for Squeak, and even if we want to we should make it so that participating is optional.
